Any game that isn't an immediate blowout is nerve-wracking and the stakes in college football are kind of all or nothing with how much recruiting matters/the current playoff system. I'll catch a game at a party or something, but it's less fun to watch when you're supposed to be good all the time. You just want to feel dirty. Admit it.

Horseunit Posted November 4, 2019 Share Posted November 4, 2019 (edited) @Mind Character So I appreciate you film study and overall knowledge of draft prospects. My question given where this team is right now. If you had the opportunity to draft one of these four players who would you take? Tristan Wirfs OT Iowa, Isaiah Simmons LB Clemson, Grant Delpit S LSU, Derrick Brown IDL Auburn. Me I'm taking Isaiah Simmons and having him cover the opposing teams TE since we get killed every game with the inability to cover them. Also, do you have any opinion of Cheyenne O'Grady TE Arkansas? He seems like a talented player but has been in trouble on more than one occasion during his college career.

What a shame, I just wanted to watch college ball for the sheer joy of watching it. Mind boggling year. Side note: good to have you posting mate 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems like a talented player but has been in trouble on more than one occasion during his college career. I'm a true JAG. I really haven't watched a lot of players yet this year to have an substantive opinion/evaluation based in evidence beyond the top guys so I haven't seen Cheyenne O'Grady yet but I'll add him to my list. Thanks. For me it's all about positional scarcity in a given year. So, I'd go with Wirfs, a LT, over a Hybrid LB/S (Simmons), A box specialist (Delpit), and a run stopping line displacing NT with some pass rush versatility (Derrick Brown). Even though this LT/OT class is deep they are all going to go early and often and be off the board by the middle of round 2 at the latest. There are Tackles I like more than Wirfs but he's going to be a good one imo. From what I've seen thus far we'll be able to find a Hybrid more box Safety dominant and NT with pass rush in the 2nd-4th based on the depth of this class. The way Wilks uses his box specialist safety doesn't require all world, high draft selection type of players. Unless that player is on the level of a Jamal Adams or Derwin James then we don't need to spend high draft capital on that box specialist/hybrid player. I like Simmons a lot and Delpit as well but they are close to that level. Would've loved to have had an all word athlete with speed at that position like Darnell Savage even though he had a slight build. There are going to be some speed box specialist with higher upside available later rather than going high with Delpit/Simmons. If the question was who do I like the most as a prospect, it goes 1.) Derrick Brown (he's taken his game to a different level by returning to college), 2.) Tristan Wirfs, 3.) Isaiah SImmons (I liked his film a lot more last year), and 4.) Grant Delpit. I see Simmons and Delpit as early 2nd to late 2nd type of guys (both will go much higher) although I once saw them both as 1st round value players. Derrck Brown and Wirfs are top 20.

candyman93 Posted November 5, 2019 Author Share Posted November 5, 2019 (edited) Offensive line needs to get bigger and meaner. That was the biggest thing I noticed watching a team like Baltimore. They’re huge and beat you up. Trying to air raid it out with Baker right now is philosophically the biggest reason why we suck this year. Freddie is calling bad plays, Bake is making bad decisions, and the o-line can’t pass block for too long. Pull a 180 philosophically next year with Kareem and Nick. Be what you are good at, not what the league says you should be. Edited November 5, 2019 by candyman93 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted November 6, 2019 Author Share Posted November 6, 2019 Just me, but break bank for Brandon Scherff this offseason. Make him your #1 target. Then draft Tristan Wirfs to lock down RT. Greg Robinson isn’t amazing, but I think you can protect him with an extra blocker at TE or a RB chipping. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
